GREAT FALLS – It’s been a hot summer and many people have been using fans to keep comfortable.

But in one location, 105 fans were turned on at the same time.

Dr. Anne Cope, director of research at the Institute for Business and Home Safety, spoke with Chester County Chamber of Commerce members and guests Wednesday about the new institute’s new test center on S.C. 99.

County Council wants to fine tune a priorities list before it finalizes it.

Council recently discussed making changes to a recommended priority list gathered from the U.S. 521/S.C. 9 corridor study.

The study made recommendations about every thing from public transportation to traffic signals in the area of U.S. 521 from Lancaster north to the state line and from S.C. 9 from the city of Lancaster west to the Catawba River. The study was conducted by URG, an urban and development planning firm.

County officials are looking at options for replacing thousands of street signs before the county must comply with a federal sign mandate.

County Administrator Steve Willis recently asked County Council to allocate funds in its 2010-11 budget for replacing signs on streets throughout the county, though council chose to wait until it had further cost information.

For golf enthusiasts, getting a chance to learn tips from golf pro Fuzzy Zoeller is a dream come true.

And that’s exactly what Larry Honeycutt had a chance to experience Monday.

Honeycutt joined more than 160 people for a day of golfing with the former Masters’ winner at the Edgewater Golf Club.

“This was a fun event for those of us who were there,” said Honeycutt, who represents District 4 on County Council. “Hearing him tell his golf stories, that was great. I’m a golf nut and I had fun there.”

According to Lancaster Police Department incident reports, some people apparently brought their guns to breakfast at the Waffle House on the S.C. 9 Bypass early Sunday morning, as at least 23 gunshots, judging by the shell casings collected by police, were fired in the parking lot and the parking lot at the nearby Jameson Inn.

Officers also found two live 9 mm rounds in the Waffle House parking lot, the reports said.

Landon Hood fired up the small motorbike at his Brookchase subdivision home and headed out.

Within minutes, the 9-year-old was joined by his neighbor Joey Alejandro, 12. Joey rode behind Landon, pulling a wagon loaded with used aluminum cans.

But they weren’t alone for very long.

Two more friends, Peyton Hood, 11, and Jacob Wilson, 12, showed up with a large garbage bag brimming with more cans. Rounding out the can crew are Pressley Hood, 7, and little Grace Ruple, 4, who tag along to help.
